watch some windmill guides and you will see the correct way to collapse...your third collapse was the best but u need to be higher on your back...do this by bringing your right leg closer to your face while collapsing...gl

You're letting your body lead you into the windmill. You want your legs to be the ones to lead you into the windmill. Otherwise, you won't have enough power to restab. You need to work on collapsing more smoothly. Bend your elbow and roll. Lastly, keep your legs separate and straight as much you as can in relation to your body. If you can keep your legs than way, you windmills will follow the correct path.

yeah basically what nissennen said

you need to get the kicking (swinging) motion of the legs down. (its that which leads the mill)

first raise your left leg
then raise your right leg.
then sweep your left leg under your right leg. (while collapsing)

instead of both legs kind of going together.

get it? if you need to, ill upload a video.
